Hi! I’m Lisa Stevens and I have been lucky enough to call FVES home since 2012! This was my first job out of college and I've loved every second of it! I have spent my entire career teaching third grade. I am excited and anxious to kick off a new year and make some unforgettable memories with your child!

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. I moved to Apex in 2004 with my parents and younger brother. I received my Bachelors in Elementary Education from the University of North Carolina-Greensboro (UNCG) with a concentration in Language and Communication. While living in Greensboro I met my husband, Mike. We were married in April 2014 in an old, rustic barn in McLeansville, NC. In 2017 we had our first son, Lincoln. He’s a student here at FVES and it’s the best experience ever! I also have a wild toddler, Easton, who was born in 2023. When I’m not teaching I am busy making memories with Lincoln and Easton. We love to go on all sorts of different adventures! I also love crafting, baking, and perfecting my sourdough loaf. 

I always say 3rd grade is the BEST grade! You will watch your child grow and thrive as they navigate their first year in the “upper grades”. Welcome to 3rd grade! I am looking forward to a great year!
